Browser performance debugger

Create a dev tool that visualizes how browsers prioritize different tasks. Help developers optimize their JavaScript scheduling.

Why now

Modern web apps struggle with jank as developers misunderstand the browser's built-in scheduling priorities.

Who for
Frontend developers
Business model
Pro features
Effort
A few weeks

Developers add unnecessary debounce and throttling that often hurts rather than helps performance.

Build a Chrome extension that shows real-time visualization of how the browser prioritizes different tasks and event handlers.

Monetize through pro features like custom profile saving and team sharing.

Start with basic visualization of task priorities, then add recommendations for optimization.

Risk is limited audience - this targets relatively advanced web developers tuning performance.
